Imagine you’re in the middle of your dream holiday, but something doesn’t feel quite right. Is it a language barrier, your fitness level, or a struggle to capture magical moments with your camera?
Whether you’re considering a weekend getaway or planning an international adventure, a little travel prep can help you ditch your worries and ensure your holiday is the trip of a lifetime.
At the CAE, we offer a range of short courses that can support your travel goals – helping you feel confident, prepared and ready to get the most out of your holiday.
Put your best foot forward
Our fitness classes are designed to boost your strength, stamina and mobility, which can help you build the energy to spend long days sightseeing, reach the summit on scenic hikes or dance the night away.
Enjoy working out in a relaxed and supportive environment, with classes available for all ages and levels of fitness.
Picture this
Our short courses in photography will help you transform your experiences into cherished keepsakes. From landscapes to candid moments, you’ll learn to see the world through a new lens.
If you’re packing your digital camera, our ‘Digital SLR and Mirrorless Photography’ and ‘Travel Photography’ short courses will teach you how to capture editorial-worthy photographs like a professional.
If you prefer to travel light, your smartphone has you covered. Our ‘Advanced Smartphone Photography: Masterclass’ will show you how to spot great photo opportunities, compose eye-catching images and tell a visual travel story – anywhere, anytime.
Discover your inner author
Travelling often sparks moments of profound reflection. Our writing short courses can help translate your thoughts and feelings into words. Whether you’re keeping a travel journal, taking notes on local history and traditions, or drafting a fictional story, knowing how to write (and write well) can help make the words and ideas flow.
Immerse yourself in culture by learning the language
Want to immerse yourself in the local culture and make deeper connections on your travels? Our language courses are a must. Learning a language is one of the most rewarding forms of holiday prep, opening the door to richer cultural experiences and unforgettable connections.
By learning and practising a new language before you travel, it will make it easier to navigate new destinations and hold conversations with locals.
If you’re visiting a French-, Italian- or Spanish-speaking country, we offer specialised ‘Languages for Travellers’ courses that focus on essential phrases and customs, so you can travel with confidence.
So, why wait? Set yourself up for the holiday you’ve always dreamed of. With the right travel prep, your next adventure can be your most confident and rewarding yet.
